Hey, did you ever sign my petition?
Your digital signature will certainly make them listen
Maybe if I took Max hostage
Maybe if we had some projections of probable corporate losses
Because optimism didn't save the ozone layer
And ladybugs don't eat that kind of "might"
If I had any strength left in me at all
I'd be cleaning up a superfund site
No optimism won't stomp those lantern flies
It's neither the concrete nor the boot
I am both and you don't wanna get caught
Between me and the truth (yeah)
Have you tried voting harder?
Maybe if we kick up some dough we could buy a senator of our own
There must be some kind of ritual
Point me to the pentagram and I will sign my initials
To whom it may concern:
There is very little of the lesson left to learn
Try not to combust
But we will detonate what we must
Because optimism didn't save the ozone layer
And it doesn't feed the ladybug his mites
If I had any strength left in me at all
I'd be cleaning up a superfund site
No optimism won't save the salt marshes
It's neither the bullet nor the gun
Guess who's both and pointing at anyone
Still spewing oil in the gulf? (yeah)
